ok, here is what happened today:
went to his qth, i think this was trip 3.....
he had his call entered in his yaesu 400 as his call/his name in the pistar config it was only his call
So, i said, "Theres the problem
"
changed it to reflect the same on both radio and pistar config, applied changes, pistar set to america link, heard all the lovely people no issue on RX, went to transmit when it was quiet and nothing, no local rf displayed... changed room to Parrot and again, No TX at all.
the radio is transmitting fine, it is brand new, i talk to him on repeaters and simplex no problem , the zumspot simply does not RX his transmission and I am at a standstill loss as to why.
I brought his zumspot home with me and guess what, it works fine here at my QTH
soooooooooooooo now it HAS to be his radio right , what else could it be, is their anyways it could be something like a firewall issue with his computer?? But it does RX no problem, would something with his PC be blocking the zumspot from seeing his rf ?? I highly doubt it right ?
With all this said and the fact it works at my house with my radio without issue i can only come to the conclusion its something with his radio . Tomorrow is trip 4
I will be bringing his zumspot back with all my setting on it, bringing MY ft70, and if it does not work at his qth I'm going drinking.
as always, any suggestions, im wore out
